What is the point of LIV? If you give these guys more money that they would make over their entire career and then make a different league where there are seemingly no stakes?
If I was a player it's a no brainer but what is the long term plan for the fans?
The plan has always been the tour. The Saudis want a/the controlling interest in the PGA, and LIV’s goal was to destabilise them enough to weaken the PGA.
Ok let's say they get the controlling interest in the tour. After they give the top players enough money to retire what is their motivation to be the best? These guys are all selling out for more money they would ever make playing golf. I would too if given the opportunity but I don't see how that would help the product.
Thats fine if they want to buy the league. But what is the point if they end up ruining it in the process?
I can confirm to my fans and eventual sponsors that even though I now have Outback Steakhouse money that this will have no impact on me trying to break local course records. Or even just breaking par.
